Behind the Screen: Made in Kentucky - MTV

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

Imagine the buzz it would've created around Paramount+ if ViacomCBS had been smart and put this on there @ launch as a Buckwild reboot.

Go to @MTVSchedule on Twitter, it's mind blowing and sad what MTV has become. I love Ridiculousness too at 11 o'clock at night before bed, but not ALL DAY, EVERY DAY!

Did they film? So crazy they didn't at least dump it on MTV2, guess it was a trainwreck. Maybe if Paramount Plus starts thirsting for originals haha

If you Google "MTV Young and Country" the Supervising Producer's LinkedIn pops up & there's a little blurb on his work for this series ... it was supposed to be a 6 episode series (à la the Teen Mom: Young Mom's Club & Families of the Mafia S1 route):

If you Google "StaffMeUp Young and Country", the Executive Producer pops up and it says he worked on it until 3/20:

If you click "Young and Country (Season 1)" on the EP's StaffMeUp page, it brings you to the page where it lists everyone who's worked on it (he's the only one listed -- 2x click his other profile ... ***others who worked on the series are listed on the StaffMeUp pages for Made in Kentucky***). This 2nd profile of his lists him as still currently working on it and it being for CMT now?

***I did not add these production members names for personal reasons/privacy, if you want to find them a simple Google search with the terms I listed above will bring their public profiles up)***

RIP? Coming soon? The world may never know hahaha (more than likely RIP)

They legit make carbon copies of the RW and all of them fail.

Floribama shore season 1 says hi lol

Tbh- For some reason I see this doing okay like that show. But this is pointless when they have the other one filming another season.

I would say this reminds me more of Buckwild instead of Real World.

anyone remember that show?

right this does not go with MTV target demographic that's prolly why it's been in limbo for so long so they can transfer it over to a sister network.
